There's the "Creepy Amusement Park" vibe so beloved by horror movies, and then there's the "Creepy Amusement Park set in a Never-finished Nuclear Power Plant" vibe where I have ended up today.

The mascot of the park, possibly some duck thing.
The exterior of the cooling tower, which now has a free-climbing installation.
The interior of the cooling tower, which now hosts a carousel.

Good to see buildings getting re-used. I love the incongruity.

@juergen_hubert@thefolklore.cafe they is no radiation until they are fuelled but you have to wonder what they didn’t finish

@MaybeMyMonkeys@mastodon.social Protests caused a delay, and then the political winds shifted and the project was abandoned.

@juergen_hubert@thefolklore.cafe I was think more about things that don’t get done when a project is cancelled i.e. missing guard rails, ventilation and fire suppression.

@juergen_hubert@thefolklore.cafe I love how the one and only reactor Austria built was only used for training, after they decided nuclear was a bad idea after all.

@juergen_hubert@thefolklore.cafe I had a teacher who worked in the "nuclear branch" of a big steel company in Luxembourg, and he often told us about how they build this and never finished.
